Consider getting a jump start on college by knocking out a general education credit or exploring a course in your desired field.

You’ll save 50 percent on tuition and get your feet wet on what college courses are like. Remember though, your grade is part of your college transcript, so choose wisely and apply yourself!

Earn College Credit at CAT-North

Students attending the Center for Applied Technology-North (CAT-North) can earn college credits by enrolling in selected Career Technology Education (CTE) programs. You then just need to successfully complete your CAT - North program, and earn a C or better on the AACC college proficiency assessment(s). Grades below C will not be reflected on your AACC college transcript. For specific program requirements, view the AACC - AACPS Proficiency Agreement.
